when it's true, it's timeless

“Confidence is so often this thing we think we’re going to arrive at,” says Claire Fountain, licensed therapist and writer. Spoke to @guardian about confidence recently. theguardian.com/wellness/2026/…

@bossladynannii @SourceDuMal Oh it's wild to think how much progress and healing could have been made for girls and women but nope. Acknowledgement of the violence of men will never trump blaming women.

@cbqualitylife @SourceDuMal I remember in class learning about his theories and feeling like that shit was so weird

This was literally what Freud found out when he was interviewing young women suffering from "hysteria"

The greatest crime of AI's current implementation is that it makes you doubt your human worth, which just reveals that our society has been asking you to measure "worth" in all the wrong ways. Your worth as a human being is not your productivity, your financial potential, your speed in finding "answers." Your greatness is that you are a question the universe has never asked before. And your right is to become that question, freely, in your own time. That is the dignity of being human. And only a world in which all those questions are being asked, through human hearts, is a world in which we will see freedom, grace, and love.

While businesses are rushing to learn more AI prompts, I'm encouraging you to reconnect to your body, the earth, and your humanity. More on my Substack. 🌹 Health Tech, Embodiment, & Analog Wellness open.substack.com/pub/clairefoun…

@nothingsoffpod Judging? Moral high horse...I work in trauma informed mental health care. Don't force is avoiding responsibility as you ask the questions in a specific way. Also look at the episode covers. It's very much shock value. It feeds on people enjoying trauma porn.

@cbqualitylife And on top of that, these people voluntarily come on my show to share THEIR story. I don’t force them to do anything. So yea, again, don’t judge and get off your moral high horse.

Warning... View Discretion is advised...

@digita1kuma This is anthropology. And the editing was so good.

Oh he kinda ate with this

🚨 Brown University researchers tested what happens when ChatGPT acts as your therapist. Licensed psychologists reviewed every transcript. They found 15 ethical violations. Not 15 small issues. 15 violations of the standards that every human therapist in America is legally required to follow. Standards set by the American Psychological Association. Standards that can end a therapist's career if they break them. ChatGPT broke all of them. The researchers tested OpenAI's GPT series, Anthropic's Claude, and Meta's Llama. They had trained counselors use each chatbot as a cognitive behavioral therapist. Then three licensed clinical psychologists reviewed the transcripts and flagged every violation they found. Here is what they found. ChatGPT mishandled crisis situations. When users expressed suicidal thoughts, it failed to direct them to appropriate help. It refused to address sensitive issues or responded in ways that could make a crisis worse. It reinforced harmful beliefs. Instead of challenging distorted thinking, which is the entire point of therapy, it agreed with the distortion. It showed bias based on gender, culture, and religion. The responses changed depending on who was talking. A therapist would lose their license for this. And then there is the finding the researchers gave a name: deceptive empathy. ChatGPT says "I see you." It says "I understand." It says "that must be really hard." It uses every phrase a real therapist would use to build trust. But it understands nothing. It comprehends nothing. It is pattern matching on your pain. And it works. People trust it. People open up to it. People believe it cares. It does not. The lead researcher said it clearly. When a human therapist makes these mistakes, there are governing boards. There is professional liability. There are consequences. When ChatGPT makes these mistakes, there are none. No regulatory framework. No accountability. No consequences. Nothing. Right now, millions of people are using ChatGPT as their therapist. They are sharing their darkest thoughts with a product that fakes empathy, reinforces harmful beliefs, and has no idea when someone is in danger. And nobody is responsible when it goes wrong. Not OpenAI. Not Anthropic. Not Meta. Nobody.

@Blacksword011 This is literally by design. If the base line for men is horrible, abusive and overtly bad.... anything above that should be enough. A blessing even. So women will continue to partner with pretty awful men, they keep the bar below hell.

@Joseph_Fasano_ ❤️ love you being here.

I need to find my people again in this place—and a reason to stay and keep doing what I do. If you love poetry, resist fascism & hatred, believe in education, and just generally value tenderness and empathy and love, can you say hi? I need to get this algorithm straightened out.

The gravity you feel, I earned.

Every winter I feel like I’m dying. And then one 70° day will come and resurrect my spirit

I think about this a lot.

I feel the same way about glp-1s as I do Ai 😖

@MoistValgina @Hoopss Came here to say the same thing (as a therapist) It doesn't help & can make it worse.

@Hoopss Research shows that hitting/breaking things when you're mad doesn't vent the anger, it just reinforces the link between being angry and acting aggressively, and makes you more likely to react violently later. Maybe take some deep breaths, cry, or do something that brings you joy

live, laugh, love, lie.
